eBay指控亞馬遜非法挖角平臺商戶

EBay has accused Amazon of using an "unlawful" scheme to tempt sellers on its auction site to move to the online retailer.

近日，eBay指控亞馬遜使用非法手段，引誘賣家從拍賣網(wǎng)站eBay轉(zhuǎn)移到在線零售商亞馬遜。

In a cease and desist letter, the auction site alleged that Amazon had used its internal messaging system to repeatedly contact traders.

該一封禁止通知函中，該拍賣網(wǎng)站稱亞馬遜曾利用其內(nèi)部信息系統(tǒng)多次聯(lián)系商家。

EBay warned that it would take "appropriate steps" to protect itself from the tactic.

eBay警告稱，將會采取“適當措施”來保護自己不受這種策略的影響。

Amazon said it had started a "thorough investigation" of eBay's claims.

亞馬遜方面表示，已經(jīng)就eBay的該指控進行了徹查。

Details of Amazon's alleged activities emerged in a report published in the Wall Street Journal on Wednesday.

有關指控亞馬遜行為的細節(jié)出現(xiàn)在了本周三《華爾街日報》發(fā)布的一則報道上。

In that story, eBay said it found out in late September that Amazon staff were contacting sellers on the auction site via its messaging system.

在該報道中，eBay稱其在九月底發(fā)現(xiàn)了亞馬遜的員工通過信息系統(tǒng)聯(lián)系該拍賣網(wǎng)站上的賣家。

Its investigation revealed that about 50 Amazon employees had sent more than 1,000 messages to traders, suggesting that they abandon eBay and instead sell via the retailer.

調(diào)查表明，大約有50名亞馬遜員工向賣家發(fā)送了超過1000條信息，建議他們放棄eBay，轉(zhuǎn)而通過該零售商(亞馬遜)進行銷售。
